Some sources will speculate that Adam Dick (Face-Eater) was trying to prise them apart for his own lusty needs. Dick actually delivered Shepherd's child and a boy was born. April named him Adam Shepherd, after the man who delivered him. This caused the pair to part their ways as Brock believed more had happened between the pair than a friendship.
